Bob's birthday is the 9th of September. Dorothy (Bob's sister) wants to thank everyone that wishes that he would be alive to celebrate his birthday. Dorothy wants to say to everyone that she and Bob had so many great times as they were growing up, and even as they were adults, that the memories are very real, (just as if he were alive now). Dorothy wishes all of his dreams had come true. A good many of them did.
Dorothy wants to tell everyone that she appreciates all the good...

Just wanted to post that Sara (Bob's wife) has done a great job with the headstone that was placed at Bob's burial site.
Sara and Bob were just like being one person. No one could come between them.
Also, my wife, Dorothy, was a major person in his life. They grew up together, and shared "secrets". They were bonded from the beginning.
I think it was only fitting that Bob was in her arms where he passed. Dorothy will forever remember that he was in her arms...

Just wamted to post that Sara (Bob's wife} has done a great job with the Headstone that was placed at his gravesite. The headstone is one that Bob would be very proud of. She and Bob were so close that nothing could come between them. Bob and Sara were so close it was as if they were just one person. My wife {(Bob's sister (Dorothy), from the time they were born, were so close that no secret was ever present (except between them, (smile}.
Dorothy misses her brother very...
